Check out our future entrepreneurs! 🎉 Sixth grade ELA students wrapped up the year with their 🦈💡 Shark Tank 💡🦈 projects. Students were challenged to come up with an invention to solve a problem at school and wowed us with ideas such as: - Combo Solvers - The Carrier Cache - Lockermate - The Cushion Carrier - The Lazy Chair and many other innovative creations! From concept to pitch, they demonstrated creativity, confidence, and critical thinking — presenting their product to our panel of “sharks” (aka administrators, teachers, and staff) with professionalism and passion. Bravo, 6th graders! 👏 https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1ErPj1UtHA/ #TerrierPride #LeadChallengeAchieve
